Whoa Nelly! Are they really reining in the so-called anti racist DEI grift machine? Maybe they're afraid of getting Matt Walsh-ed! Actually I think "quiet quitting," as a Substacker recently referred to it in terms of walking back "gender affirming" child care in medicine, is not a bad way to go. A massive purge sounds appealing but the French revolution didn't end up going well, and there are a lot of good people who got caught up in DEI overreach. Hoping this return to sanity trend trickles down to K-12!
Obviously, they are not going to stand on this grand stage and admit "hey folx, we were wrong about it all this time, we're taking it back". It may be quiet quitting, but judging from their actions it is probably just rebranding, renaming, and being more quiet and subtle about it.
In fact, we have a post coming up soon about UMass Boston's anti racism grants. We have had them for a few years and mentioned them in one of our earlier posts here:
